  1. They are worth the extra. That's why a dealer will pay more for a low mileage car, because it's worth more and easier to sell. I would agree with you if it was a newer car with motorway miles, but not with daily drivers that are a decade old. I doubt anything needs to "dry out" after 10 years, and any "gremlins" must be good at "hiding". IMHO a 10 year old 350z used regular with high miles is going to need a lot more spending on it than a mint, low mileage equivalent. Look how long some cars sit in the classifieds despite members saying "this is a bargain" etc etc. This car sold to a dealer with no pics quickly. From the description it sounds like the best 350 I've seen in the classifieds. Fine, IMHO they're not worth the extra. Happy now? Some people are mugs and buy cars just because they've got low miles on them. Good luck to them, it's their money. Personally I'm a bit more savvy and realise that modern cars do not suffer with mileage like older ones used to, but each to their own.
  2. Me neither, I'd be interested as well.
  3. I didn't say they weren't worth more, did I? Try reading it next time rather than just filling in the blanks in your head. I said they're not worth the extra.
  4. I don't think they do. Is that not the whole point of religion, belief? If you don't have that, then you don't have anything.
  5. One day, I hope that religion will be viewed with the same disgust we currently have for racism. It would save an awful lot of problems, all this fighting over who's got the best pretend friend.
  6. See, that doesn't appeal to me at all. I'm not a massive fan of sweet foods, although Jo might be tempted.
  7. To those asking where it is, if only I'd been clever enough to put a link to the website on the very first line of my first post... Also, I'm married. That should give ample reason as to why I need save no space for sneakytimes afterwards. Cost I'm not fussy about, I figure I can then justify spending more on my food than on her present...
  8. Care to sum it up for those of us who don't have a few hours to dedicate just so we can reply to your single post?
  9. Jo and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary this month, and so I've booked us a table at the Rare Cow restaurant. It's a lovely place, and I've been there once before, but upon choosing what to have I've come a-cropper, as they say. They do a Holy Cow Burger, which is as pictured below (that's two of the guys I went there with, shows scale between normal burger and Holy Cow): 24oz of pure meaty goodness, with salad and onion rings inside. I managed to get through approx 3/4 of mine before giving up. I put this solely down to having stuffed my face with a huge starter beforehand, and I know I could finish that muther in one go with ease on an empty stomach. However, I've seen they now do another epic food nom to try... That's a 74oz sirloin. Seventy four ounces. TWO WHOLE KILOGRAMS OF BEEF. Plus odds and sods, of course. Now, I look at that steak and wonder if I can really pass that up? But is it a bit excessive really (it's £99 just for that, the burger in comparison is just £29)? They are proper challenges too, so if you do the burger in 20 mins or the steak in 60 mins you get it free, but tbh I wouldn't rush it regardless. Either would be just for the sheer pleasure of great food in copious amounts. So folks, do I revisit the burger and conquer the one large meal that has ever beaten me, or do I throw caution to the wind and go for the steak?
  10. *waves hands* Yes to both. I really like DA2 despite all the flak it got, and I never noticed any of the repeated scenery or other badness that folks have mentioned since. Really looking forward to the new one next month. I adore Oblivion and Skyrim like they're my own children. Both so incredibly mesmerising.
  11. Extremists will hate the West regardless of whether we're interfering over there or not. That's the problem with extremists.
  12. Reminded me of this: I like it, but much like the Huracan I don't love it.
  13. Well yeah, of course there's GPS as otherwise no sat nav would work Basically there's still no way to use any internet-based map service as a sat nav via this system, not if you want it to work anywhere and any time. I've got the TT app for the phone, which for £30 was a bargain and is all I'll ever need. Works without data too
  14. Because your phone downloaded the map for your entire route before you left, as per post #31 If you'd gone significantly off course, or decided to go somewhere else, then it would've failed.
  15. The w belongs to the first number, not the second.
  16. Mine doesn't get unlocked until midnight
  17. Yes, because it uses gps based on the map you downloaded. No downloaded map, no routing. Turn off all data connections, and try it. I just did, it cannot locate me nor find any routes.
  18. You'll have a long wait then.
  19. Because you downloaded the route on wifi first. If you were in the arse end of nowhere and need the satnav, it's useless.
  20. Never mind supporting mods. Plus constant fettling. Plus higher running costs. But yeah, done correctly it can be good fun.
  21. Not really, as you'd need 3G to run it permanently, which isn't always a given. Until we get 100% UK 3G signal of course
  22. Are you locking the brakes often on track?
  23. Nothing new, men have been blowing stuff in women's faces for years. Sometimes it's welcomed, mostly not though.
  24. I picked mine up from school.
  25. Ah, I knew I was going wrong somewhere. Thanks for the tip
